This four-day course provides students with the foundational knowledge required to configure, verify, and troubleshoot devices that run Junos OS. Students will gain a wide variety of practical experience with using the command-line interface (CLI). The course focuses on routers and switches, and explains Layer 3 network interface basics, routing tables, static routes, OSPF, Layer 2 switchports, user accounts, firewall filters, routing policy, and troubleshooting. Particular attention is given to the power of the candidate configuration, rolling back changes, and the power of the Junos OS configuration hierarchy. The course also discusses the key architectural components of the software that powers Junos OS, the separation of the control plane and the data plane, and the reasons that Junos OS is built for automation. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring Junos OS and monitoring basic device operations. This course is based on Junos OS Release 22.1R1.10. This course is also available On-Demand.

This four-day, intermediate-level course provides students with the knowledge required to work with Juniper Connected Security devices. This course uses Junos CLI, Junos Space® Security Director. The course provides further instruction on how Juniper Networks approaches a complete security solution for current and future security problems, called Juniper Connected Security. Key topics include tasks for intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) rules and custom attack objects, IPSec VPNs, Security Director management, Juniper® Advanced Threat Prevention management (ATP) Cloud management, Policy Enforcer management, Identity aware security policies, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Proxy configuration, and Juniper Networks® SRX Series Firewalls high availability configuration and troubleshooting.

Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos OS and monitoring basic device operations. This course is based on Junos OS Release 24.2R1, Junos Space 23.1R1, Security Director 23.1R1, and JIMS 1.7.0R2. This course is also available On-Demand.

This two-day, intermediate-level course is designed to provide students with intermediate switching knowledge and configuration examples using Junos Enhanced Layer 2 Software. This course includes an overview of switching concepts and operations, virtual LANs (VLANs), the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), port and device security features, and high availability (HA) features. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos OS and in monitoring device operations. This course uses Juniper Networks EX4300-24T Series Ethernet Switches for the hands-on components, but the lab environment does not preclude the course from being applicable to other Juniper hardware platforms running the Junos OS. This course is based on Junos OS Release 21.4R3.
This course is also available On-Demand.

This three-day, intermediate-level course provides students with intermediate routing knowledge and configuration examples. The course includes an overview of protocol-independent routing features, OSPF, IS-IS, BGP, routing policy, IP tunneling, load balancing, high availability (HA) features, VRRP, and IPv6.

Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring Junos OS and monitoring device operations. This course uses Juniper Networks vSRX Series Services Gateways for the hands-on component, but the lab environment does not preclude the course from being applicable to other Juniper hardware platforms running Junos OS. This course is based on Junos OS Release 23.4R1. This course is also available On-Demand.

This five-day course is designed to provide students with the tools required for implementing, monitoring, and troubleshooting Layer 3 components in an enterprise network. This course provides detailed coverage of OSPF, BGP, multicast, class of service (CoS), and EVPN-VXLAN. The course also exposes students to common troubleshooting commands and tools used to troubleshoot various intermediate to advanced issues. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos operating system and in monitoring device and protocol operations.

This one-day course is designed to provide students with the knowledge required to manage the Junos Space Network Director application and to manage devices with that application. Students will gain in-depth knowledge of how to work with Network Director. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience with the features of Network Director. This course is based on Junos Space Release 19.2R1 and Network Director 3.7.

This three-day, introductory-level course provides students with the knowledge to secure their network using SRX Series Firewalls. Key topics include security zones, security policies, content security, and network address translation (NAT). Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience with each of these concepts. This course is based on Junos OS Release 24.2R1.17. This course is also available On-Demand.

The Data Center track enables you to demonstrate competence with advanced data center technologies and related configuration and troubleshooting skills. JNCIE-DC is at the pinnacle of the data center certification track. The 1-day JNCIE-DC practical exam is designed to validate your ability to deploy, configure, manage, and troubleshoot Junos-based platforms using both Juniper Apstra and the Junos CLI. Throughout the 6-hour practical exam, you will build a data center network consisting of Juniper Apstra and multiple Junos devices. You will perform system configuration on all devices including management capabilities, a Clos IP fabric, EVPN/VXVLAN, DCI, and CoS features. The JNCIE-DC certification is valid for three years. To view the recertification options, go to the Recertification webpage. Learn more about this exam.

Preparation Resource: the JNCIE-DC Self-Study Bundle will prove highly valuable as you prepare for the lab exam.

Notice: On May 5, 2025, we will be updating the exam for the Juniper Networks Certified Expert, Data Center (JNCIE-DC) certification. This is a minor update to align with current supported managed Data Center software versions. The Juniper Apstra version will be updated to 5.1.0 and we will be using the 23.4R2-S2 (vEX) vJunos-switch version. All other exam information and tasks will remain the same.
